subject:"\[AFMUG\] OT shall we start a pool"

you dont think the business friendly environment created by the executive
has anything to do with the markets? you dont think the regulation heavy,
anti business environment of the prior executive had anything to do with
the slow growth?

I think the Executive's words can influence confidence in the economy.  I
want a successful salesman in that position, not someone with a "those jobs
are never coming back" attitude.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

2020-03-02 Thread Adam Moffett

I will say that we in the USA have a terrible habit of pinning the 
economy on our politicians.  When things go up each party will take 
credit, and when they go down each party will blame the other.

In reality the economy of the nation is driven mostly by the chaotic 
stew of everyday decisions made by millions of consumers and 
businesses.  The federal reserve can influence those decisions by 
adjusting interest rates, and the the Executive & Legislative branches 
can influence those decisions with some of their spending, regulation, 
and tax policies.  The extent of that influence is debatable, but I 
really don't believe it's as far reaching as people seem to think.  
Overall you bought a house because you needed a place to live, and you 
bought a Cambium 450i because you needed one of those too.  Did you 
really choose not to buy what you needed because of a Trump tariff or an 
Obama tax? I doubt it.

I don't believe we live in a Trump economy or an Obama economy.  We live 
in the American economy. If the president actually controls the economy 
then we must live in the USSR.  We should probably revolt right now if 
that's the case.

Steve, you need different media.

 

Or do you mean the plural of “medium” as in someone who connects you to the

The point of the stock market is to invest in a company that you think 
will grow and succeed.  People making money on day to day price 
fluctuations are really skimming money /out/ of the market IMO.


also don't most (non-HFT) day traders lose money?

Title: Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

Matt,

There will be more positive results. That's a given. No one should be surprised about that. That should be expected and should be common knowledge.

However, the media will act surprised. We will have news alerts. We will have more "experts" talking about on TV. If we are lucky we may even get a live feed of people yelling and screaming waving their arms in the air while running in circles.

See what happens this week when the US starts doing more tests.

State departments of public health are supposed to maintain an

requirement of some of the disaster response funding they recieve.

South Korea and parts of the UK have set up

me swab my own throat and have someone bring it
somewhere for testing. Then if the test comes back

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

2020-03-01 Thread Ken Hohhof

Steve, you must not even had read the article, to say it’s a prime example of a 
hoax.  It has extensive direct quotes from federal and state government 
officials, virtually all the information in the article is from credible 
government sources.  Not even summarized or paraphrased, it consists mostly of 
direct quotes.

 

I don’t see how this is an example of the media “spewing” false information.

 

And yes it’s a lab test, but now many state and local labs will be able to do 
the tests.  Nobody is saying it’s an instant on-the-spot test, like a 
breathalyzer or the 5-minute rapid strep test.  Even with strep, if the rapid 
test is positive, the doctor sends a sample to the lab for overnight testing.

There is supposed to be about 90+ labs in the US ready to do the test on 
Monday.  
I wonder how many false positives these tests kick out.  
Some of the tests are based on PCR so they should be pretty good.

My wife works at a hospital and was pissed as she walked down the iso
hallway yesterday and all the doors were opened. You going to blame trump
for that too?
She fails her fit test every year for the mask because of her face shape,
as does roughly 25 percent of the country. Is that a federal responsibility
too? Should the fed come in and reshape faces so everyones n95 mask
actually works?
State departments of public health are supposed to maintain an active list
of potential oveflow and quarantine facilities, thats a requirement of some
of the disaster response funding they recieve. Thats been in play for over
20 years that im personally aware of.
If the existing systems that were designed and implemented specifically for
prepared response to boilogics, we would have virtually zero risk of a
pandemic ever going beyond the nusiance stage.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

All of _what_ has been done.   In Washington state they just announced 
that they don't have resources to test any but the worst cases.   That's 
with only 7-10 cases identified as needing testing.   You couldn't fu'k 
this up any worse if you were trying to!   The "most advanced" country 
in the world isn't doing a lot better than Iran at this point...

There should be extra hospital beds being identified, and triage

who think they are infected don’t just walk into their doctor or
hospital’s waiting room.

Maybe I’m the only one, but I honestly don’t know what I am

see how bad it gets?  Go get tested?  Where?

South Korea and parts of the UK have set up drive-through testing
facilities where you don’t leave your car.  That sounds like maybe
a good thing. Or let me swab my own throat and have someone bring
it somewhere for testing.  Then if the test comes back positive,

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

Close to 60 days since Wuhan broke out. 

It’s gaining steam here in the U.S. 

There’s about a 14 day incubation period and some people can be asymptomatic 
which means they are silent spreaders. 

This means by the time we hear of deaths, the disease is already well infected 
that area. There is a severe lag here because of the way this virus works:

Day 1-14: Incubation
Day 15-21: Cold Like Symptoms
Days 22-30: Severe Symptoms (if they are going to develop)
Followed by death. 

By that point the infected has had at least 14 days or longer to infect other 
people. 

In some cases symptoms have improved for the infected only to then take a 
serious dive down and result in death.

Ken,

Want to make a billion $. Develop a at home self test kit and sell it on Amazon for about $5 - $10.  There will be people buying cases of the kits so they can test themselves every hour to to be sure.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

I’m not panicking yet. 

I’m *probably* attending the show. We’ll see where things end up in two weeks. 

I’m seriously considering bowing out of MuM and an event the month after at 
this point though. We shall see. 

Remember the lily pad problem:

A single lily pad is on a pond and the number double every day. In 28 days the 
entire pond will be covered. It’s on day 27 that only half the pond is covered. 
Days 1-26 look pretty calm.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

Washington state officials said Saturday they have seen at least two new 
coronavirus cases tied to a longterm care facility, the  
<https://lcca.com/locations/wa/kirkland/> Life Care Center of Kirkland.

The patient who died, however, was not tied to the care facility.

"At this point, we don't have links," Duchin said.

Duchin said he was "very concerned" about spread in the facility, which has 
about 108 residents and 180 staff. About 27 residents were showing symptoms, as 
well as 25 staff, Duchin said.

One worker at the facility – a person in their 40s with no known travel history 
to affected areas – tested positive for the virus and was in satisfactory 
condition, officials said.

A resident at the facility in their 70s also tested positive and was in serious 
condition.

Well, 2 of west coast cases have been found to have a nursing home in common, 
it was reported the death was a male resident of the nursing home ("reported" 
because earlier he was a she, never know these days what bio it is with 
floating pronouns) if it was a nursing home, then we will find out just how 
viralent it is. Nursing homes are death camps for communicable disease. With a 
patient haveing gone through the imcubation period that matt says youre 
contagous, to the symptomatic stage, all the way to death, every resident 
should have it, and at least half the staff.

watch Brazil, Mexico, Sri Lanka and the other areas that are getting warmer

I would be fascinated by the protocol, share?

Covid-19 is active for 9 days on cardboard and plastic.   Hopefully it 
arrives more slowly than that.

Every couple of months a question about "is there anywhere I can get 
unpopulated circuit boards manufactured at a reasonable price outside 
mainland china?" comes up on a couple of forums/mailing lists I'm 
on.   The answer always turns out to be no.   It's amazing that 
somewhere else hasn't figured out how to replicate what China is doing 
as far as the circuit boards go, even if it was double the price.   
For comparison, US suppliers are typically over 20 times the price - a 
board that is under a dollar each from China can cost $20 to get made 
in the USA.
So, like everyone else, our blank circuit boards come from a supplier 
in China.   Right now, things are backlogged, but it looks like 
they're close to caught up.  In an abundance of caution, we went ahead 
and pulled in 6 months worth for anything we're currently shipping, so 
they'll be here in the next few weeks and we don't have to worry so 
much.   We haven't inserted an order for the new Base 3 boards yet, 
but we expect by the time we do sometime next week that the backlog 
will be largely cleared from our preferred supplier in China.

I have a suspicion that very soon, one or two major companies

I expect an unrelated announcement this weekend that will
quell the downward spiral, a short recovery on monday.
Within a week or so the administration will temporarily ease
tarriffs on humanitarian reasons
By the end of march I think even if the kungflu is still
present, it will be less impactful.
Recoveries are outpacing deaths now 2:1, new infections are
beginning to stagnate. we will see a bump as more surveillance
comes on board, its loose in california, and they poop on the
streets, so there will be some controlled outbreaks there, no
worse than hepatitis, but the plateau is here, excluding some
major calamity, like an outbreak in mexico (this will have
major geopolitical consequence that will heavily reflect in
the markets). its probably going to do some harm in africa
with the locusts, but i dont know that africa really impacts
markets, they still have ebola running around.
By the end of march, the market will be on the rebound, early
april it will pass 30, that will drive an april speculative
growth between 33 and 35 that will correct back down to 29-31
in may.
around this time production will be back to normal, and the
reorganized sourcing will be coming on line and the vaccine
will be moving to the next stage
supply chain disruptions will be recovering
china will be starving, but humanitarian aid will give
everybody a gleeful feeling of global unity.

Sometimes it goes up. Sometimes it goes down. Even in the short term though on 
a mediocre run you can easily make $1,000/week on $50k.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

Correct. You’ve got to watch your money and buy and sell properly. 

Stock market has tow approaches:

Set and forget - and in the long run you’ll make money. 

Or buy and sell often and aggressively make more money if you do it right (or 
lose a lot of money) if you do it wrong. 

I was talking to one of our own who is no longer in the industry, the other 
day, who told me he made around $500 in about 15 minutes of the stock market 
opening doing his day trading.

The entire idea behind traditional retirement is living off the proceeds of 
your stock investments. 

It’s really not that hard if you plan properly. 

No one has to believe anything I say.  

But we aren’t hurting for cash and business is booming faster than we can keep 
up right now.   I know how we got there, whether anyone believes me when I tell 
them how we got where we are is entirely up to you.

Thanks, Italy and Iran.

China numbers are looking promising, but Italy 300 new cases

I see the photos from places like China and S. Korea with

The important part of this article is that !!!124!!! nurses and staff 
have been sent home for self quarantine.   That's the hidden threat of 
this virus.   UC Davis, which is supposed to be "ON IT" for dealing with 
this virus is now 124 staff short for dealing with new cases.   For a 
minimum of 14 days and likely longer as other cases have the some of the 
same effect.   Folks, if someone has anything like flu symptoms, they 
better be wearing a mask and not touching anything you are dealing 
with.   You better not be touching anything they are and then touching 
your eyes nose or mouth without disinfecting. Is anyone still 
thinking this is just a bad form of flu?  You are kidding yourself.   
Best case 10x more fatal than flu, worst case 50x, _with_ medical 
care.   2-4x more contagious..

Interesting that the fatalities  in China are around 3.4%, yet the 
fatalities outside China are only .1%.

Listening to the news this morning, it's become apparent that outside 
of China, no one was prepared, and that they really have not been 
testing. Problems with test kits; like they were not working 
correctly, and secondly, no one was testing.

I believe (now) that this virus has already spanned the globe, and the 
major saving grace is that 80% of the cases are mild or asymptomatic. 
it is, after all, just another corona virus. New or not, we deal with 
viruses like it all the time.

Thanks, Italy and Iran.

China numbers are looking promising, but Italy 300 new cases and
South Korea 900.  Number of countries with confirmed cases is
around 60.

I see the photos from places like China and S. Korea with soldiers
spraying public places with disinfectant, and the steps takeout
food places and stores are taking to avoid transmission, and I
wonder if that is feasible here.

Meanwhile S. Korea has tested 35,000 people, the US has tested
400.  Shortage of test kits, and guidelines to only test people
who have travelled to China. If you can believe the Internet
(stupid question) Hong Kong is even testing pets.  We don’t even
have enough kits to test people.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

Fatalities, no matter what disease, is hugely effected by the 
performance of health care facilities.  China was very overwhelmed for 
two months.   They are currently building 17 new hospitals and 
construction of anything else in the infected cities is completely 
halted.   I can forward a text from someone's children in Bejing that 
says exactly that, so this isn't second hand information. Other 
countries are mostly underwhelmed ( Iran is the exception and their 
death rate is over China's ).  Most other countries haven't had the time 
for death rates to be settled vs the explosion of cases, so saying they 
have a rate is bad statistics.   To compare the death rate you have to 
compare it to the number of cases when the death was infected not the 
current number of cases.   The single worst thing about this disease is 
that the infected are contagious prior to be symptomatic.  That is so 
freaking weird we aren't dealing with it with any appropriate response.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

Hard to judge fatality rate when new cases are just starting to rise in a 
country.  They may be undercounting the cases because, like you say, they 
haven’t been testing.  On the other hand, maybe the people haven’t had it long 
enough to die yet.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

The entire idea behind traditional retirement is living off the proceeds of 
your stock investments. 

It’s really not that hard if you plan properly. 

No one has to believe anything I say.  

But we aren’t hurting for cash and business is booming faster than we can keep 
up right now.   I know how we got there, whether anyone believes me when I tell 
them how we got where we are is entirely up to you.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

>From WHO statement yesterday:

“Outside China, there are now 4351 cases in 49 countries, and 67 deaths.

Since yesterday, Denmark, Estonia, Lithuania, Netherlands and Nigeria have all 
reported their first cases. All these cases have links to Italy.

24 cases have been exported from Italy to 14 countries, and 97 cases have been 
exported from Iran to 11 countries.

The continued increase in the number of cases, and the number of affected 
countries over the last few days, are clearly of concern.”

Thanks, Italy and Iran.

 

China numbers are looking promising, but Italy 300 new cases and South Korea 
900.  Number of countries with confirmed cases is around 60.

 

I see the photos from places like China and S. Korea with soldiers spraying 
public places with disinfectant, and the steps takeout food places and stores 
are taking to avoid transmission, and I wonder if that is feasible here.

 

Meanwhile S. Korea has tested 35,000 people, the US has tested 400.  Shortage 
of test kits, and guidelines to only test people who have travelled to China.  
If you can believe the Internet (stupid question) Hong Kong is even testing 
pets.  We don’t even have enough kits to test people.

Sorry, I'm gonna pick on you Matt.

Matt likes to share lots of unrealistic things he does that others find
impossible like large stock returns with a diversified portfolio. 100%
close rate in sales for every customer that calls in for service, etc.

Maybe if you had all your money in one stock like Tesla that went up 400%
in less than 12 months, sure I can see a crazy return. But that's not
diversified, it's all eggs in one basket. If you truly diversify, there's
no way to have a 260% return in the market, just like there's no way you
have a 100% close rate on sales. It's not possible.

You can get 260% return in Vegas.  But quit while you're ahead.

Re: [AFMUG] OT shall we start a pool

It’s about a 20 day boat trip. And even if it comes by air it will sit at the 
distributor for a bit. Then a few days in transit to you. 

We will probably quarantine Chinese stock for a week or two just to be safe. 

I’m more worried about the local out breaks and stock shortages than 
contamination of stock.
